Discoveries in Spaces of Art: Photographs Between View, Space and Resonance

This exhibition at the City Gallery in the Cultural Forum Klosterkirche Traunstein condenses the art experience into a dialogue: Herbert Stahl observes how a resonance relationship between artwork, architecture, and viewer is formed in museum spaces. His series of images, photographed both analog and digitally, precisely combine artwork observation and exhibition atmosphere – an aesthetic experience that makes colors, light, and spatial effects palpable.

Spatial Aesthetics as a Stage of Perception

Between angled view axes, reflections, and unexpected details, Stahl stages the poetic in-between moments of exhibiting. Lines and surfaces of architecture cut through the image space, bodies become silhouettes, artworks become actors in the choreographed parcours. This creates a sensitive play of painting, sculpture, installation, and photography that connects the art direction of documentary-reflective museum photography with pictorial rigor.

Work Analysis: Encounters that Write Images

Stahl focuses on the expressive potential of the moment: a hand before color, steps on stone, shadows on frames. His compositions specify the relationship between figure and space, addressing gaze direction and curation. The series questions the era of museum culture in the 21st century – how we see, how we move in the exhibition space, how meanings are negotiated through material, light, and hanging.

Photography, AI and the Question of Reality

In addition to photographs, the exhibition features a film produced with artificial intelligence. It sharpens the debate about image authenticity and perception: What does the camera capture, what does the algorithm generate, and how stable remains our trust relationship with images? The presentation makes these questions visible without revealing the magic of perception.

Curating and Mediation: Open for Discussions about the Work

The City Gallery unlocks the themes with guided tours and walks. Opening hours rhythmize the visit: quiet artwork observation during the week, vibrant exhibition atmosphere on the weekends. Accompanying events with the artist and the gallery convey backgrounds, methodology, and photographic practice.

Conclusion

Those who wish to understand art as a living process will find concentrated visual training here. The exhibition invites one to recalibrate space, work, and gaze – an inspiring invitation to take time, sharpen one's perception, and experience the multifaceted language of images in the original.
